According to Richard B. Johnson:

No, you look. No argument about language standards can never be
settled by examining any compiler's output. Ever.

The C standard specifies certain sequence points. Other than those
specific sequence points, order of evaluation is undefined. There is
nothing that says that in a+f(), that the value of a will be loaded
either before or after the call to f().

Now, state chapter and verse in the _standard_ if you disagree.
But please don't embarrass yourself by quoting gcc again.
